    Special Episode: GORGE Festival

    Are you feeling 𝓰𝓸𝓻𝓰𝓮 ?! We’re BACK for a special episode all about GORGE, a drag & queer arts festival founded by Synonym Art Consultation and co-curated by Sunshine House, happening online March 20-21! We’re chatting with Synonym co-founder and creative director Andy Eastman all about making Manitoba’s first queer arts festival, some of the super cool events we’ll be tuning in to, and the importance of showcasing & compensating drag as an art form like all others. I ALSO had the delicious opportunity of crashing one of GORGE’s filming days at Club 200 to snag live on-the-scene interview with a few of the performers & production crew, including Satina Loren, Jen Doerksen of BNB Studios, Anita Stallion, Lady Fortuna, Malaikah Rang'inya, Peppermint Phattie, Jaryd & Elle-Eganté. /// Follow GORGE Festival to learn more about all of these exciting, free, virtual events you can enjoy this weekend!
